Well, most of the websites now are mostly bloatsites with so much useless effects and/or scripts.. 8 gigs of ram is not a problem here, current standards or maybe let’s call them fancy e-fashions are.
Few days ago I stumbled upon a single page website that was loading like 12 fonts and I don’t remember how many effects libraries just to use some fading and one font in two weights.
I went to change privacy settings on my old yahoo email account and the tab started taking up 24GB of ram. Some sites are just mega fucked.
